First publication: Flydubai removed its flight schedule to Israel

Flydubai removed its flight schedule to and from Israel due to not receiving the required security approvals. Israir and Arkia stopped selling tickets to Dubai, and El Al delayed sales until mid-December. Abu Dhabi remains an alternative via El Al and Etihad.

Flydubai removed its flight schedule to and from Israel, making it impossible to book tickets on the Tel Aviv–Dubai route. The required security approvals for resuming flights have not yet been received, following the Flydubai flight affair. Meanwhile, Israir and Arkia stopped selling tickets to the destination, and El Al delayed sales until December 15. For passengers who planned a vacation in Dubai or a connection through it to the East, limited alternatives remain: flying to Abu Dhabi via El Al or Etihad Airways, and then a drive of about an hour to an hour and a half to Dubai. Another alternative is a flight via Warsaw with LOT. The article notes that a return to normalcy is not in sight until approvals are received.
